pieces of the broken wire remain in the cell to
cause shorting.
3. Secure end of new ionizer wire in loop of
bottom ionizer wire spring.
4. Depress top ionizer wire spring with finger as in
Fig. 16.
5. Secure top end of ionizer wire in loop of
ionizer wire spring while it is depressed.
6. Inspect wire installation and relieve finger
